N2 - The phosphodiesterase from snake venom catalyzes the hydrolysis of the Rp diastereomer of thymidine 5'-(4-nitrophenyl [17O,18O]phosphate) in H216O with retention of configuration at phosphorus. This result is in agreement with those previously reported for the hydrolysis of chiral phosphorothioate substrates (Bryant, F. R., and Benkovic, S. J. (1979) Biochemistry 18, 2825-2828; Burgers, P. M. J., Eckstein, F., and Hunneman, D. H. (1979) J. Biol. Chem. 254, 7476-7478). The hydrolysis reaction catalyzed by this enzyme occurs via formation of a covalent nucleotidylated enzyme intermediate.
